This night is brief...

This Night is Brief…

Hush my dear, this night is brief

These sweet moments will fly away,

Ah! These moments… filled with soft dewy love

And myrtle’s scent…and shooting stars

Bejewelled as a grapevine in the month of may.

***

So hear my voice though I am not there

B’coz its for you,.... only for you… I sing and cry

And I’ll sing on…. until you sleep

There after my song will die.

***

Dear, I crossed the world in the form of love

Though it felt like walking on burning coals

But now I’ll kiss away all your strains

And let them lay waste my own dear soul..

***

The rhythm of your breath commands my thoughts

I can dance to your beats the whole night long

But don’t, I implore, ignore my words

For i havecrushed my heartinto this song.
